5.00The cruise was great! We had a wonderful time learning about Loch Ness, the myth, the history and the importance of the Loch to Scotland and the UK. It is a relaxing cruise with some informative commentary by the staff. The tour is well paced and very enjoyable! The views are incredible! We had clear sunny weather with cool breezes across the loch. The 2 hours go by pretty quickly, but well worth it!
Highly recommended trip.
